A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 205

At this moment, Charlotte's remarks had utterly humiliated Jonathan. He wanted to save his dignity, but Charlotte insulted him so severely that he was practically nothing.

Even the reverence in everyone's eyes was replaced with disdain as they looked at Jonathan.

This proved that Jonathan, who wielded power and influence outside, was nothing remarkable after all. He was nothing but a worthless clown before Charlotte's brother, Neil Grant. Neil would slap or kick Jonathan hard whenever he was upset, and after he was done, Jonathan still had to keep his mouth shut and treat Neil's behavior toward him as some twisted form of care.

He was in a pitiful state.

After pulling Jonathan a couple of notches down, Charlotte scanned across the room, and her eyes landed on Jack.

Then, her mouth curled into a smile. "Do you remember me, handsome?"

Feena, Thomas, Mia, and all the bystanders, including Amelia, who was carefully observing the situation, anxiously looked at them. They never thought Jack would know Charlotte personally.

However, Charlotte's treatment of Jonathan made it clear that she was an exceptional character, while Jack was a normal person. They were from completely different classes—how could they have possibly known each other?

However, Charlotte's question suggested that they were merely acquaintances. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked such a question.

Then, everyone was slightly relieved at the thought of it. Thomas and the test were silently wiping the sweat off their faces. If Charlotte and Jack were close, they would be in an awkward position for treating Jack the way they did earlier. Perhaps Jack would find some way to get back at them. They silently thank the heavens for protecting them.

Not only did she thank Jack, but she even humbly accepted Jack's suggestion.

It was a 180-degree shift compared to her attitude toward Jonathan. The crowd couldn't help but suspect that there was a relationship between them they didn't know about.

Then, Charlotte turned her gaze toward Jonathan. Her expression grew serious. "Jonathan, you wanted to kick him out, didn't you?"

Jonathan's expression changed. He sighed to himself, thinking how unlucky this year was for him—who would have picked on a small fry would end up provoking Charlotte, the she-devil? However, no matter what he did, he could only awkwardly nod. "Yes, I-I thought he sneaked in."

He answered while observing Charlotte's expression. Upon seeing Charlotte's expression darkening, his voice turned softer.
